After a waiting of several years, "finally" large silures have populated the Belgian Meuse river.
Let's hope that they do not finish like our sanders !!!
... with white butter in the restaurants of this Area.

Jean-Paul's famous "bicolor", an Alsatian customer. His first silurid, in first evening... and near the camp...
Eel, buoy, 30cm of bottom in 1,70m of water.
2,08m but not weighted, but very strong for its length.
A fight of hell !!
Beginning of evening - April 2000

My wife Elisabeth, and me, with one my most beautiful "mandarines". The whitest one in any case. But not a real albino!!
2,00m and almost 60kg.
Carp, buoy, 1m of bottom in 2m of water.
23h00 - April 1997

Elisabeth (on the left) and Isabelle, our little wifes with their record catfish (2,20m) that they caught all alone from A to Z!
Carp, buoy, 50cm of bottom in 1,50m of water.
Un unforgettable fight! . . .
